Like Trump he spouts things as fact and when proof cannot be supplied blames the fact finder

And in the Oval Office, too, according to the CIA.

Continuing the Dark Ages theme...the witch hunts begin.

Removing, marginalizing, or restricting the future roles of anyone who has either pushed the Global Warming nonsense or gone along with international moves to do so is one of the best things Trump might do, and certainly very much in line with the wishes of those who elected him.

So the CIA has not only concluded that Trump is a "good buddy of Putin," but they are also sharing reports to that effect with you?

A Gallup poll earlier this year indicated that almost 2/3 of those polled are worried either a "great deal" or a "fair amount" about global warming.  It seems that those who feel the issue of global warming is nonsense are in the minority.

Well, that certainly is ironclad proof.

You have no proof that "Global Warming is nonsense".   That's your belief, not necessarily a fact, and I support your right to follow any religion you see fit.

You are right, popular opinion is not ironclad proof. Unpopular opinion isn't either.

So why don't you prove something instead?  Logically, rationally, and dispassionately prove something instead of expecting everyone to simply believe what you believe.

The need for proof resides in he that proposes a principle or theory.  Those who propose the Anthropomorphic Global Warming theory have never allowed it to be peer reviewed, and have yet to provide the necessary raw data that would have to be available for peer review.

The contention has been based upon data gathered over the last 50 years by surface temperature readings that have been kept secret during that time.  Even though those results fly in the face of satelitte measurements during that time.  The theory has been totally unable to answer the most obvious inconsistency of the theory - the fact that during the past 18 years mankind has produced record amounts of global warming gasses yearly, with literally no corresponding increase in global temperatures.

But I agree with you.  Both sides accept their belief as a religion rather than as a science.  But in that sense, a new religion has taken over the reins of Government, and rightfully should take our policy in a new direction.

Who won the election?

What was his position on Global Warming?  Didn't Hillary ever continually press that issue?  And didn't she lose?

Regardless what Gallup might have indicated, those you consider to be in the minority won, and the issue you, and Hillary, wanted to put front and center proved to be a loser.

Go Trump!
